CHANGES IN BOLD
INTRODUCTION
Well i had a big intro wrote, but my screen went back for some reason, so i might as well try this again. Hello everyone this is Scotti and this is probably my greatest team i ever made. First off i hope you liked the banner i created. I was using the program called GIMP which help you make really good banners and logos and such. Next you some of you don't believe my peak you can see it after the introduction. Anyway i was inspired to make this team out of curiosity. Well i found that curiosity when i was browsing through the Rmt Archives and i found the Sun Team made by Lavos Spawn using a great trapping core composed of Genesect, Victini, Xatu, and Dugtrio. It was a great team you could say, but there was one problem. Genesect is now banned, so that got my hopes down of trying to create and new and effective trapping core using genesect. Well i still decided to make a sun team though, but i wanted to be a little more creative. When i mean creative and effective i don't mean just changing the chlorophyll user, because Venusaur is such a monster. I mean finding a new Genesect. I named it Genesect 2.0, not really i named her wendy, but the pokemon name is Azelf. It can carry almost the same coverage, and can also run a physically based choice scarf and a specially based choice scarf. I choose the special one because i can hit threats harder that way. It seemed really good. It was like Genesect, but slightly weaker thanks to no download boost and worse typing and bulk. That may seem alot weaker, but in return we get a blistering 115 base speed stat outspeeding some of the fastest threats in OU named Lati@s, Terrakion, Keldeo, Garchomp, Gengar, Starmie, and anything thats slower than them. It is also faster than Tornadus though my EV spread is slower than max speed Tornadus because he is very uncommon. Anyway i should move on and show you my ladder peak now.
POKEMON SHOWDOWN NAME SCOTTI-SAN
TEAM BUILDING
Okay it is now for the Teambuilding process. I am going to skip alot of it just saying. And just make it super short because i am very lazy.
You got your normal sun team pokemon that you see on most sun teams. Woo nothing special, but it does get work done.
Then you got Dugtrio you TTar killer, Heatran destroyer, or just defeats anything that it is hit SE by Earthquake. What a great pokemon indeed.
Then you got that floating fairy thing Azelf that compliments Dugtrio by U-Turning on TTar which makes and easy trap for Dugtrio. It also can U-Turn out of Air Balloon Ninetales or Heatran and bust there Balloon while going to Dugtrio for that kill.
Then you got that Heatran another part of my trapping core. Heatrans job is to trap Politoad with Magma Storm use Sunny Day and Kill it with Solarbeam. The Same thing can work for Tyranitar, Hippowdon, and Ninetales who can die from Earth Power after getting trapped.
Finally you have Jirachi the last of my trapping core. I choose Jirachi because it has U-Turn can revenge kill alot of threats. Can beat the CRAP out of Latios, which is great for my team. Also it is just great on its own against alot of threats. Anyway on to the Analysis.
ANALYSIS
~Rayleigh (Scizor) @ Choice Band
Trait: Technician
EVs: 252 Atk / 248 HP / 8 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Bullet Punch
- U-turn
- Superpower
- Pursuit
Ok, so with my newest edition Scizor i needed to rename it since it looked nothing like a Lucy it looked more like an Rayleigh. To all you One Piece fans out there who doesn't want to be the first mate of the pirate king. Also Scizor looks pretty cool and he is strong, so you know he has to be a cool and strong looking guy. Anyway enough with Scizor awesome name why don't we get into more detail.
Well i really didn't know what to do with the EV Spread, so i used the one pokemon showdown gave you after you picked your item and moves, so yeah i just went with what they gave me. Anyway i choose Choice Band because i needed a strong revenger killer and something to hit Dragonite if i don't have stealth rock on the field. He also allows me to defeat other Venusaur and Stoutland who can cause alot of damage to this team. Well thats all I have for that lets just move on to the moveset.
Ok i choose Bullet Punch, so i can revenge kill alot of annoying threats to this team. It also breaks Dragonite Multiscale if rocks are not up which really makes defeating that thing alot easier. Bullet Punch is also just great in general if i want to do some strong fast damage. Oh and it helps against Mamoswine who tend to be well annoying because of Ice Shard against Venusaur and how it hits a lot of my pokemon for SE damage. U-Turn allows Scizor to help my trapping core by U-Turning out of danger. It works well with Dugtrio because usually Magnezone and Heatran like to switch into Scizor, so i can U-Turn out to Dugtrio to trap Magnezone or Heatran and defeat them which works most of the time. Also if i run into random Cresselias then Scizor can go and get some work done, by severely damaging Cress. Next i have Superpower which allows me to catch Heatran on the switch and defeat it. It also allows me to catch Magnezone with out Dugtrio help. Another thing i can do is defeat Ferrothorn which is not anything major because this is a sun team full of fire attack, but it does help at times. Finally we have Pursuit which i really love. With this i can catch those annoying Lati@s and defeat them. Though i have to watch of Hp Fire it helps in the long run and makes this team alot better,(Mostly with those 2 out of the way).
~Vis (Heatran) (M) @ Air Balloon
Trait: Flash Fire
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 SAtk / 4 HP
Timid Nature
- Magma Storm
- SolarBeam
- Sunny Day
- Earth Power / Taunt
Because i couldn't find a Heatran Gif i will show you that picture and you will read it. That why i love Heatran its Heat is friendly to the enviornment and i don't pay those annoying utility fees. LOL anyway i named it Vis because i really don't know. Well actually i had a named for it, but then i tried Victini in its spot and i named Victini Vis because it has a gigantic V-Shaped head, so yea i just kept the name on Heatran, because i actually like the name. Anyway enough with how Heatran's heat is friendly to the environment even though utility fees are more important.
Okay now the EV's and Moveset analysis. Well i can't say anything about the Ev's since they are just normal, but the item the same thing lol it allows Heatran to avoid capture from Dugtrio and ground moves. Shed Shell might be better some will say, but Air Balloon allows me to wall Hippowdon like there is not tomorrow. I decided on this set after some snooping on smogons Heatran analysis it seems viable and let me tell you best Heatran set ever created. I would like to thank whoever made that sexy set because i am owning all those weather pokemon. Though at the same time i came up with something, but don't laugh. I would show you l8tr, but i don't feel like it so i will put it at the end of the RMT. Anyway lets get on to the move set analysis.
Magma Storm is the crux of this set. It allows Heatran to trap all weather pokemon and defeat them. Though with Tyranitar since i am scared of Superpower i use Magma Storm and change to Dugtrio, so they can't escape no matter what. On the other ones i trap them change the Weather to Sunny Day or in Hippowdons case just use to magma storms. The only downside of this move is that it misses alot anf have little PP. Solarbeam is, so i can beat the weather pokemon named Politoad, Tyranitar, and Hippowdon it is pretty easy to defeat them with Solarbeam once they get trapped. Solarbeam really is a great move in sun. Next we have Sunny Day, it allows us to change the weather after i trap the weather pokemon making it easier to win the weather war. It is also nice if Ninetales die earlier on in the game which shouldn't be happening, i can still get sunny day up and sweep with Venusaur. Finally Earth Power. On the smogon analysis it was Earth Power or Hp Ice. I choose Earth Power because it allows me to hit opposing Heatrans just incase Dugtrio lost. Also its great that if Dugtrio comes in on Magma Storm it loses because of damage at the end when you're are trapped in Magma Storm.
~rudolph (Dugtrio) (M) @ Focus Sash
Trait: Arena Trap
EVs: 252 Spd / 172 Atk / 16 HP / 68 Def
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Stealth Rock
- Reversal
- Memento
Dang this is taking along time. Though i don't notice it i am really into making these RMT's. Once i start writing something i get hooked and can't stop until i noticed that i wrote all that i needed to right. Anyway why i named it Rudolph well that it is obvious just looked at the gigantic red nose how can you not stare away from that thing...... wait hold on, in all my years of pokemon can someone reading this answer my question. Is that a nose or a mouth because i really can't tell. If anyone can answer that question i really don't care if its not a rate i really don't know what that is. Anyway thats enough looking at that red thing lets get on to the Ev and Item analysis.
Ok i decided on the focus sash set even though hazards pretty much ruin it. Though Dugtrio has its usage outside of trapping while setting up rocks..... Not really. Though i tried alot of things with Dugtrio i tried a Memento set that worked good with the normal trapping set, but was having 4mss. I also tried Sucker Punch, and to a wierd extent Sunny Day which failed very badly. Anway onto the Ev's i choose. The set is very wierd, but let me explain.
252+ Atk Choice Band Tyranitar Pursuit vs. 16 HP / 68 Def Dugtrio: 169-201 (78.6 - 93.48%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock
Looking at these calculations this Ev set allows Dugtrio to come in on a Pursuit Choice Band max attack Tyranitar got to 1hp and nail Tyranitar with reversal. It really comes in handy. Next the 16 Hp does more than just help against Tyranitar here is another calc
Seismic Toss: 100-100 (46.51 - 46.51%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Stealth Rock
After 2 Seismic Tosses from Blisser or Chansey it get reversal to 1Hp allowing Dugtrio to use full power reversal which can do a Ok amount of damage making Chansey and Blissey easier though Jirachi handles them easier.
Ok now the Moveset. Earthquake is the main STAB allowing me to trap and own Heatran and Tyranitar, also Ninetales sometimes, but i have to watch for Will-O-Wisp. Its also the Main attacking move Dugtrio has, so yeah it is pretty much helpful when it comes to trapping. Stealth Rock allows me to do something helpful before i die wtih Dugtrio. Though Memento might be a better options since it helps against setup sweepers, i choose Stealth Rock becuase it helps against other focus sash users and Dragonite. Reversal is my best way of nailing Tyranitar right in his you know what and crack Chansey's and Blissey's Egg you get it LOL. Anyway it also helps to get a pretty strong move when your about to die and use it to deal alot of damage. Finally we have Stone Edge. Sometimes i think Stone Edge is more important that Earthquake because of one reason. Dragonite and Volc. Okay thats to reasons, but oh well Stone Edge allows Dugtrio to not be setup fodder to these super strong beast though i get some mad if i miss that Stone Edge, you suck 80 accuracy, but i can live with it.
~rai (Ninetales) (M) @ Leftovers
Trait: Drought
EVs: 184 Spd / 252 HP / 76 SDef
Timid Nature
- Flamethrower
- Will-O-Wisp
- Roar
- Sunny Day
We are finally at the great weather inducer Ninetales. Idk why this thing isn't used more it is great pokemon and is really helpful at countering all those different kinda of weather pokemon. Anyway the name. I named it rai the sun god, its a fitting name for that pokemon thats create internal sun. My only wish is that you were as strong as a god because all you do is make internal sun and burn things. Anyway enough with the name of this awesome pokemon why don't we talk about that Ev spread and item.
I choose a specially defensive Ninetales and i don't know what the heck is with my Ev Spread. Well i know i ran enough speed to beat base 80's and just threw the rest into bulk which is pretty stupid of me. If you have a better Ev Spread tell me even if your house is on Fire because it was probably my Ninetales who did it because he wants a better Ev Spread than this crap. Anyway its just a specially defensive Ninetales and thats all i can say about that.
Okay the Moveset is pretty straight forward. Flamethrower is so i can hit something with a powerful STAB in sun which really helps when fighting something i can hit neutral which is almost never LOL. Will-O-Wisp is probably the first or second best move on this set. I love when i predict a Terrakion switch in and i just burn it. Its like already winning the game. Its also fun burning defensive toad making it easier to work with. That is my favorite type of toad to. If it run Choice Specs or Scarf then i am going to get mad. Roar is kinda filler, but it helps stopping Calm Mind Latias or Volc from setting up. Its comes in Handy sometimes, but that is all i can say about that. Though i might decide on another move also. Finally we have Sunny Day which i said might be the most important move on this set. Sunny Day allows me to catch opposing toads off guard and it is even better when i have Stealth Rock on the field and it is burned because they die pretty fast after that. Well thats all i can say about Ninetales.
~wendy (Azelf) @ Choice Scarf
Trait: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 216 Spd / 252 SAtk / 40 Atk
Hasty Nature
- U-turn
- Hidden Power [Ice]
- Psychic
- Trick
Next wer have Azelf a super important pokemon on this team. First off the name. I named it Wendy because i was watching Fairy Tale and there is this girl named wendy who is the Sky Dragon Slayer, so it matches when you see this floating fairy thing i think. Anyway that was why i named it that, but why did i pick Azelf. Well let me tell my other name for it. Genesect 2.0. Azelf can learn almost the same moves as Genesect and possibly more which makes it such a devastating pokemon in my book.
Anyway the Item and the Ev Spread. The Set is something that is not on the smogon analysis right now did you get the hint: right now LOL. Though it works great though. It outspeed the whole unboosted metagame with Choice Scarf and every viable choice scarf user in OU (When do you see Jolteon with Choice Scarf same with Weavile, Alakazam, and Dugtrio). Anyway the Ev Spread, i ran 216 which allows me to outspeed 110 base speeds and higher. Anything above that is now a threat to my team, so i really don't think i need max speed. Max Special is so i can hit hard when my gigantic coverage, and that 40 attack Ev's is just to boost U-Turns power, nothing special though.
Okay the moveset is probably why i love Azelf. With U-Turn it becomes Genesect. Anything name Tyranitar or Scizor who tried to trap it will feel a whole lot of pain. If Tyranitar traps it i don't really care because i just trap it with Dugtrio. Scizor can only trap me if i am locked into Psychic or Hp Ice, because i can demolish it with flamethrower. That is why Azelf is usually my lead. Hp Ice is my favorite attack on this set. I seen, so many Landorus-T leads lose to that move over and over it makes me laugh. Though if this set gain popularity and people are ready for it i can just U-Turn to gain Momentum what a great move. Psychic is so i can revenge kill both Terrakion and Keldeo which are some of the fastest choice scarf users in the tier and i am talking about revenge killing them. I am talking about revenge killing Latios to with Hp Ice lol. Psychic also helps me hit fighting type which only Azelf can do, but i have to watch out for toxicroak since it carries Sucker Punch. Flamethrower is one of my favorite moves on this set. It allows me to own scizor leads and ferrothorns, skarmory, and forretress also. It is such a great move i can't replace it, but there are other moves you can try on this set. Fire Blast is a great move that can be used on this set if you want more power though i miss too much, so i stopped using it lol. Thunderbolt can also be used to hit water types and Gyarados which can be a threat to this team. Trick can also be used to cripple bulky walls also. Those are just the moves i tried Azelf move pool it amazing, it has Stealth Rock, Grass Knot, Thunder. You can also run a Physical Scarf with Ice Punch, Fire Punch, Zen Headbutt, Explosion, and Thunder Punch. Know wonder i love this pokemon.
~daphne (Venusaur) (F) @ Life Orb
Trait: Chlorophyll
EVs: 180 Spd / 252 SAtk / 78 HP
Timid Nature
- Giga Drain
- Sludge Bomb
- Hidden Power [Fire]
- Growth
For the final pokemon we have the Queen of all Chlorophyll users Venusaur. The other Chlorophyll user have their niches, but Venusaur outright shows them who is the Queen. I named her Daphne i type of flower. If my Venusaur was a boy then i would say the King of all Chlorophyy user, but this one is a Female. I don't know why i like to name my pokemon and stuff. Anyway enough of how i like to name pokemon lets get to the Item and Ev analysis.
I ran max speed because i can literally outspeed everything in the Metagame. This things blistering speed is awesome which makes it a the best chlorophyll sweeper. Venusaur may get outspeed by other chlorophyll sweepers, but there is another reason why Venusaur is King\Queen. That bulk of hers. Which i why i could run max speed without taking too much damaging from my opponent. I choose Life Orb because i can pretty much KO everything besiede max Special Defense Tentacruel i seriously ran into to those when i tried sweeping with venusaur. Though they couldn't do anything some had Ice Beam which made me mad, but good thing that is uncommon. Anyway lets get to the Moveset.
I love Giga Drain over Solarbeam straight up. Giga Drain allows me to recover from my Life Orb damage which really comes in handy considering how fast it dies from it. Its fun to stay in on defensive toad who think i am going to return since they have their weather back and i nail them with Giga Drain and win the weather war. Seriously i ran into a few people who left them in lol. Sludge Bomb allows me to KO Latios or anything that resist Giga Drain. Though Latias should be mention because she can take a Sludge Bomb and KO Venusaur. Sludge Bomb is also helpful if my opponent is trying to ware down my Venusaur by switching alot most people don't have that many resist to poison and i can nail them pretty hard with Sludge Bomb. Hp Fire is to let me break through those annyoing steels in my way like jirachi and ferrothorn. Scizor also, but i have to watch out because a Choice Band Bullet Punch can do some damage. Growth is awesome because i can setup and just sweep very easily. Though if they have Chansey or Blissey on their team and it lacks Thunder Wave or the random Fire Blast + Fire Gem Blissey i ran into early on another alt then i am set to go, because i can setup in their face and sweep their team.
